Homoeroticism

The Delectable Negro: Human Consumption, Homoeroticism, and Cultural Transformation in the African Diaspora is an essential read for anyone interested in exploring how racism, colonialism, and homophobia have shaped African cultures. Written by Vincent Woodard, this book is a groundbreaking exploration of the role of African Americans in influencing and challenging cultural norms throughout history. Drawing on research from anthropology, sociology, gender studies, and history, Woodard examines how consumption of black bodies has been both a tool of oppression and a site of resistance. He offers an insightful look into how African diasporic cultures have used homoeroticism to redefine themselves and their relationships with the rest of society. With its unique approach to understanding African diasporic culture through the lens of human consumption, The Delectable Negro provides an invaluable resource for those seeking to understand race, sexuality, and power dynamics in the modern world.
